MK Ariel: Barak Resignation a Blessing to Settlements

Chairman Uri Ariel of the Tekumah party said, Monday, "Defense Minister Ehud Barak's resignation from political life is a blessing for the settlement enterprise, since all the time he strived to hurt the settlers and the settlement enterprise in an unfair and unjust way."

The Member of Knesset continued, "In the next Knesset we will be part of the government and see to it that an appropriate person sits in the Defense Ministry and not one who will undermine the government's national line."
